   Warhammer 40k 11th Edition: Points, apps, and terrain updates roll out

   Warhammer 40k’s 11th Edition is live with major rulebook changes, new app updates, and terrain adjustments. Pre-orders for the slim core book and Essentials are open, while Event Companions and mission decks are now downloadable. Players report deeper engagement with the new edition compared to 10th Edition. Confirmed updates include revised cover rules, unit points, and app functionality, but some release schedules remain unclear.

   What's confirmed:

   • The Warhammer 40k 11th Edition core rulebook is now available in a slim pre-order format under the Essentials line.
   • New Event Companions with updated terrain layouts and event rules are available for download today.
   • The 11th Edition app has received updates, including revised unit points and rule clarifications.
   • Terrain rules have been revised to emphasize tactical positioning rather than simple hiding mechanics.
   • The Combat Patrol playstyle is being promoted as an accessible introduction for new players to the 11th Edition.
   • Players report engaging more with the 11th Edition than they did with the 10th Edition.

   Still unconfirmed:

   • The full 2026 release schedule for 11th Edition products, including codex and army releases, is still under wraps beyond the Armageddon launch box and its two armies.
   • A new roadmap for Warhammer 40k 2026 exists but lacks specific release dates for most upcoming products.
